We spent 4 days in Zion with our kids and grandkids that could come. We had a great time. Every afternoon, we had 2-4 deer that came into our camp to eat the green leaves. We went to the Zion Canyon theater and saw the movie"Oblivion", and the next day Tonya and Kevin went with us on a hike that turned out to be 7 hours instead of the 2 we thought it would be. It was a trail we found, and had wanted to see where it went. It is NOT one of the regular trails. It was beautiful, and there were a lot of pools and waterfalls. The only sad thing is that Kevin slid and twisted his ankle. He still had to hike on it for hours to get out. That night we all ate at the Pizza Noodle. Jessica's family came for the evening. On Saturday, Scott's family hiked the Narrows (we tended the little ones) We took them on the shuttle and then hiked to a hidden place we know that has a cool waterfall. That night the kids all played in the Virgin River. It is very low this year. On Sunday, we hiked the Watchman Trail, and ate lunch on the top of the mountain. It was a fun weekend. We also celebrated 3 family birthdays while we were there. You can see the rest of the pictures
